loopStream: File Transfer

Tecno Blocks

About this app

Free, local-first file sharing for every device. No cloud, no account—share a folder over Wi-Fi or anywhere via encrypted relay. Self-hosted and truly private.

loopStream turns your Android phone or tablet into a private file server. Share folders between Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, Mac, and Android TV—all without uploading a single byte to the cloud.

Pick one folder. Start the host. Pair a device with a 6-digit PIN or a QR scan. That folder is instantly reachable on your Wi-Fi at full LAN speed—or anywhere in the world over an encrypted relay. Same PIN, no cloud storage, nothing leaves your control.

WHY loopStream
• Local-first — runs on your Wi-Fi at full LAN speed, zero cloud round-trips
• Remote when you need it — an encrypted relay reaches your files from anywhere
• Truly free — every feature, every platform, $0, no subscriptions, no seats
• Private — your files live on your devices, never on someone else's server

FEATURES
• Zero-config discovery — mDNS finds every host on the network automatically
• PIN & QR pairing with signed tokens kept in secure storage
• Full file browser — navigate, search, sort, create, rename and delete
• Resumable transfers with a background-safe upload queue, progress and retry
• Trusted devices & roles — grant read-only, upload-only or full access per folder
• Audit log — every pair, upload, download and delete recorded; export or wipe anytime
• Sandboxed — nothing outside the one folder you choose is ever reachable

ANDROID TV
On Android TV, browse and stream your shared library on the big screen — video, photos, music and any file type — using the same loopStream host running on your phone or tablet. No extra setup required.

EVERY PLATFORM, BOTH ROLES
Host or connect from Android, iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, Android TV, and the web. Your phone can host its camera roll, a laptop connects to grab it — all speaking the same local API.

Your files. Your network. Nobody else's servers.
